Cyanotype on Denim: Nature Printing Workshop
Date & Location TBA
3 hours | Bring Your Own Denim | Class size: Always 25 or less
Turn your favorite plants into wearable art! In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to use the historic cyanotype (sun printing) process to create beautiful botanical prints on denim. Using light-sensitive dye, pressed leaves, and the power of the sun, we’ll transform jeans, jackets, or other denim items into one-of-a-kind pieces.
You'll be guided through every step—from prepping your fabric to arranging your plant materials and developing your print in water. We'll talk about what works best (and what to avoid), explore creative layout ideas, and celebrate happy accidents. All materials, including cyanotype solution, tools, and pressed leaves, are provided. Just bring a light-colored denim item to print on (a pocket, pant leg, or jacket back works great!).
Expect to leave with a beautiful custom piece, a strong understanding of the cyanotype process, and inspiration to keep experimenting at home.
